Bøker av Ajit K. Dasgupta

This volume examines Gandhi's economic theories in areas covering consumption and behaviour, industrialization, technology and the scale of production, trusteeship and industrial relations, work and leisure, and education as human capital.

This volume provides an overview of economic thought in the sub-continent. Arguing that it would be inappropriate to rely on formal economic analyses, it draws on a range of sources; epics, religious and moral texts for the early period and public speeches, addresses, and newspaper articles for controversies from the 19th century onwards.
